Distinguished Service Award

The Distinguished Service Award was established in 2019 to honor District 5 players who have provided outstanding volunteer service on behalf of the District. The winner may also have volunteered on behalf of a unit, but preference is given to individuals who have served the District. The Executive Board of District 5 chooses the winner.
